Setup of OMV6 on Odroid HC2 - systemctl preset failed on systemd-networkd.service

NothingNowhere · 2. November 2022

Hi all, I managed to fix the following problem with apt install -f but thought I'd report here...

I installed Armbian on my Odroid HC2, did apt update and updgrade, then started the OMV6 install using wget -O - https://github.com/OpenMediaVault-Plugin-Developers/installScript/raw/master/install | sudo bash

All went OK until the end, when there was an error (systemctl preset failed on systemd-networkd.service) which prevented setup of the openmediavault (6.0.46-1) package (no errors before this):

Code

I ran apt install -f and it seems to have resolved it, system works fine as far as I can tell.

Hi Everyone,

I'm going to intall OMV 6 on my old faithfull BananaPI M1. I followed the instructions of the Armbian Bullseye (Bananapi_bullseye_5.15.48)

I have got the same error like NothingNowhere's got. I tried to run the apt install -f commend wihtout success

Code

Setting up openmediavault (6.0.46-5) ...

Sometimes I got this error too

Code

Failed to preset unit: Unit file /etc/systemd/system/openmediavault-beep-down.service is masked.
/usr/bin/deb-systemd-helper: error: systemctl preset failed on openmediavault-beep-down.service: No such file or directory

I am not familiar in Linux so I would appreciate a solution for dummies.

Did you abort a previous installation or reboot the system during that phase? I'm really wondering how your problem can happen. I'm now working with Ubuntu/Debian since 18 years and never faced such problems. I really want to understand how you and other users make that happen.

Hi I followed the steps of https://wiki.omv-extras.org/do…seye_install#introduction.

I don't know what I do wrong. So I attach (Fresh_install_trace.txt) the SSH commands of a fresh new image install.

You may see something critical about the process what I don't.

Thank you for advance.

Could you please run ls -alh /lib/systemd/system/*networkd* and ls -alh /etc/systemd/system/ and post the output. Maybe there is a problem with this unit file on Armbian equal to https://priit.joeruut.com/arch…unmask-command-fails.html.

Please also run systemctl status systemd-networkd.service and post the output.

I just ran into the same problem on my new Odroid HC4. Did not abort or reboot in the middle of the installation...

Until the issue with Armbian's "latest bullseye image" can be resolved:
There's a work around to build OMV using an older Armbian image -> here.

Can you install if you run systemctl unmask systemd-networkd.service before? If unmasking fails, simply run rm -f /etc/systemd/system/systemd-networkd.service.

The systemctl unmask systemd-networkd.service command solved the problem. I have a running OMV

I have tried to unmask the service before but I may used different linux's syntax

Thank you.

This worked in a quick test build. Aaron altered the Armbian install script accordingly.

rickyx · 26. März 2024

I confirm that I had to

systemctl unmask systemd-networkd.service

to complete Omv 7.0.4-2 install on Armbian Bookworm.

Platform odroid-hc4.

No reboot during install

Thank you,

Riccardo
